Welcome to Christina Kent Early Childhood Center!

At Christina Kent Early Childhood Center (CKECC), we believe that every child deserves a warm and loving place to learn and grow. As a proud NAEYC-accredited program, we have been nurturing young minds since 1919, making us the oldest continuously operating child-care center in the Albuquerque area!
